Scummy Tyreek Hill Only Facing “Maximum” Suspension of Four Games

Despite fairly damning audio evidence, Chiefs WR Tyreek Hill will reportedly avoid a major suspension regarding his child abuse allegations around his son’s broken arm. Already cleared of legal charges, Hill will reportedly face a “maximum of four games” ban and is expected to report to Training Camp on time. Considering Hill was the No.1 WR in fantasy last year, and is arguably the most explosive player in the league, his increased availability carries enormous fantasy weight. 

Hill reportedly underwent an 8+ hour investigative interview with the NFL, which was deemed “successful” after Hill reportedly presented a “massive amount of evidence to support his testimony.” Regardless of how scummy this may all feel, or our own feelings about the ruling, Hill is an absolute fantasy wrecking ball on the field. He’s the best deep-ball artist in the game, an impossible tackle in the open field, and can turn a small slant into a 90 yard TD in the blink of the eye. Simply put: no player is more capable of single-handedly winning you a game, and Hill rarely puts up complete duds.

Thus, even if you’ll be without Hill for a quarter of the season, he still must be considered a Top-35 overall prospect. 12 games of Tyreek are better than a full season of most players, especially with so many intriguing “Penny Stock WRs” available in the later rounds to patch a lineup together.

As of now, I have Hill at 33 Overall and WR13 on my latest 2019 Big Board and Rankingsright after Amari Cooper and ahead of the Vikings WRs, Julian Edelman, and Brandin Cooks. If the suspension is even lighter (i.e. 2 games), Hill will be right back into my Top-25 overall. For more on the impact on Mahomes, Watkins, as well as replacement plans, click here.
